With all due respect Chad is full of crap in that statement. Tell the truth Chad......what exactly have you done to Dallas that he is now collapsing on stage. Your politicians statement carries no weight with me.

Dallas does not need more excess he needs a quality approach to add detail and get away from the blown up block of mass look he has that will never take him to the top.

I mean, those are some very serious accusations made by Shawn. Unless he has "inside information" regarding Dallas, to come out and say this even while Dallas himself says he was sick and was just trying to "brave it out" is a bit unfair to Chad.

What year did the "Coleman near death in a bathtub before the Olympia" happen? I've never heard of this.

[Ronnie Coleman ]

"I almost died at the Olympia that year (2001). I fainted before the show; as I was putting on my pro tan in the bathroom I just collapsed because I was just exhausted. Then when I got up the next morning I was so sick and exhausted I couldn't even get out of bed.

"I had to drink a gallon of water and that is just something we don't do (laughs). A gallon of water just to get out of bed, to get where I felt good enough to get out there and battle those guys for the title. So I decided that I would never do that again (compete at the Arnold and the Olympia during the same year) (laughs). It is just too much stress on the body and you can only take so much. We are humans, not machines."

Oh, ok. Yeah I knew about 2001 but I remembered Ronnie saying he had to drink a gallon of water just to get out of bed. Shawn saying "near death in a bathtub" made me think he was referring to another incident.

From what you are saying might it be Dallas was not listening to Chad and doing his own thing and going more extreme with his protocol and diuretics?

After pic does not show up but I think the before pic is actually the after pic (after she gave up bodybuilding and tried to transition to figure). The earliest public pics of Kim were when she was already on the rise in bodybuilding and more muscular than this "before" pic.

True. I remember she downsized and tried to compete in Fitness or something in the early to mid 2000s.
